On the evening of Friday, August 5, 2016, gunfire struck a home in the 4200 block of College Avenue in Kansas City. An unknown person fired multiple rounds from outside, bullets penetrating a bedroom wall. Jerry Nickens, 54, who was inside the residence, was hit and later died of his wounds. A woman who was in the same bedroom was also injured in the shooting.

The Kansas City Police Department opened a homicide investigation, canvassed the neighborhood, and asked the public for help, including an anonymous tips hotline. No arrests or publicly identified suspects have been announced and the motive remains unknown. The case appears to have stalled with no new leads reported.

Did anyone in the neighborhood or who knew Jerry have information that could help bring clarity to what happened that night?
